This is directed at Videotron and Shaw Direct subscribers as they are the only ones capable of receiving RFO (St Pierre and Miquelon) unless you get it FTA from Newfoundland... The island is going all digital Sept 30, 2011 and the analog feed will end. This is how it is picked up in Canada.
The biggest change is that due to rights issues with Canada, RFO as well as newly introduced national channels France 2,3,4,5, O and France 24 will all be encrypted. So unless Shaw and Videotron have some sort of agreement, it appears that RFO will be gone from your dial next year.
I used to get when Bell carried it. Now I'm with Rogers and they don't carry it either.
I get my French TV fix by using a Sling Box hooked up to Fiber in France. The quality is superb (just as good as here).
